    I created all of the appliques from photos I found on Google "images" or from free clip art.

    I found her (and many others) from a search on "images". I then took the image into Photoshop and made her the size I wanted for the quilt. Then printed her in pieces that fit on an 8.5 x 11 piece of paper. Taped the pieces together and then cut out the pattern. This also worked for the dolphins, the rock and the see weed.

    Beautiful quilt -- love the way you used the strips for the background for the applique. Great job.
